    Both fighting people they should beat easily on paper and both very big fights for them to shine. Who needs the win more? Broner who's coming off his first ever loss or Khan who coming up in weight hoping for the big money mayweather fight?

    Khan defintely. At the end of the day Broner, still is a 3 division champion and is still very young. Yes hes arrogant but fact remains he probaly has achieved more than Khan already has, albeit against inferioir competition overall compared to Amir.

    Khan however, has came up short against Prescott, Peterson (yes controversial), Garcia and even Diaz could have gotten the "W" but GB would have lost a load of money so couldn't afford that. If he losses this fight, he is finished in my humble opinion. He has more pressure, being a silver medalist, constantly changing trainers, etc...

    So I think a "L" would be a major setback for both fighters but Amir would more than likely feel it more.

    Hmmmmm. Good points. I went into this thinking Broner, but you've swayed me. Good show, old boy.

    Khan is rich as **** and famous has had a decent career and will go down as one of the best Asian boxers ever

    Thats if he retires now

    Broner is a street rat thug wannabe who nobody likes apart from street rat thugs. if he loses to this nobody who Khan already beat then Broners career is over! His money is already spend on gangbangs with whores and gold teeth and chains and all the things to make him look gangster

    Just to put that in perspective, Broner NEEDS the win more, for the sake of his future. If he loses give it 5 years and hel be back to mugging old ladies like last time

    You make a good point. However, if Broner loses to Molina then that loss against a low class opposition is worse than any of Khans. What i mean is, the people Khan has lost to are decent world level fighters to some degree. Broner losing to Molina could very well end his career right then and there. If Collazo KO's Khan then it might be over for him too but he can be matched against light hitters to work his way back up to the top again. I guess the question is; Who do GB value more between the two?

    For Khan it would definitly mean the end of his career if he doesn't want to become a gatekeeper or a domestic b-side.

    On the other hand, Broner losing again after having had a couple of gifts already would put him in the corner of being a complete and utter hypejob, knowing he can't go back to LW and make the weight without lending some stuff from J'Leon.

    Still I think Broner might be able to salvage his career if they match him light

    Good counter. But Molina actually is a top prospect with only loss to Khan if I remember correctly. If Khan looses a SD thats one thing, his fight with FLoyd would be cancelled, but he could still get decent paydays. However, if he gets clearly outboxed or stopped, hes done at the elite level.

    Khan is the type of guy who can be winning on all three scorecards going into the championship rounds and get knocked out. I remember very clearly when watching the Garcia fight; Emmanuel Steward saying "And Khan didn't do anything wrong!" I think Khan has been kinda unlucky with how his career turned out and even though i think he's a bit of a knob, i would like him to do well. I personally think that Khan is much much harder to outbox than to KO. I think a lot of fighters would find it difficult to outbox Khan and when they struggle they can just look for the KO. Collazo shouldn't even contemplate trying to box, he should go in there swinging.

    Definitely its going to be Amir khan, because he is the former two-time world champion. He also impressed Frank ****** with his performance and he would be always impressing everyone every time he fights.

    Khan is going to have to win his fight, whereas Broner just has to avoid being brutalized or stopped against a feather fisted bum and they will give the **** another robbery.
